Green Taverners Marquee Receives Completion Certificate
Category: News
We are delighted to announce that the Green Taverners Marquee has officially received its completion certificate from Plymouth City Council Building Control LABC. We have also secured an agreed lease extension through to the end of the 2027/28 season, giving the Green Taverners and our members greater certainty for the seasons ahead. Our thanks go to Plymouth Argyle Football Club, particularly Paul Berne, who championed the lease extension. We greatly appreciate the club’s continued support and commitment to the GTs.
Thank You to PCC LABC Building Control
PCC LABC Building Control have been a pleasure to work with throughout the project, and we would like to sincerely thank them for their assistance, guidance and support in helping us reach this important milestone.
Building Control Manager, Guy Cooper, said:
“The Green Taverners team have delivered an impressive purpose-built marquee that provides a high-quality, welcoming space for football supporters, while also serving as a fantastic community facility. From the outset, Gary’s vision, commitment and determination to deliver a facility of a high standard was clear to see. The positive and collaborative working relationship between the Green Taverners and Plymouth City Council Building Control LABC has continued to strengthen over the years, with a shared focus on achieving a safe, compliant and high-quality facility. The marquee provides a valuable meeting place for the Green Army before and after matches, supporting both the matchday experience and the wider community. It is a great example of what can be achieved through enthusiasm, commitment and effective partnership working. We are delighted to have been a small part of this facility and wish the GTs every success for the forthcoming season and the future.”
Based on our experience throughout this project, we would be very happy to recommend LABC Building Control to anyone undertaking a similar project. Their professionalism, knowledge, guidance and collaborative approach were invaluable in helping us navigate the building control process and bring the new Green Taverners Marquee to completion.
Thank You to Bright Solicitors
We would also like to extend our sincere thanks to Bright Solicitors for their advice and support throughout the project.
Bright Managing Partner, Julie Milton, said:
“Bright Solicitors is incredibly proud to have supported the Green Taverners as their new marquee has become a reality. The Green Taverners play such an important role in supporting Plymouth Argyle and the local community, and we’re delighted to have contributed to a project that will benefit supporters for many years to come.”
We are extremely grateful for Bright Solicitors’ support and would highly recommend them to others. We look forward to continuing our working relationship with the team in the future.
Studiojb Architectural Services
Another special thank you goes to Jason Battle and his team at Studiojb Architectural Services.
Jason and the Studiojb team have been instrumental in getting the marquee to the point of opening, providing expert guidance and support throughout the project.
Jason said:
“Studiojb are proud to be associated with the successful delivery of this project with the client, Gary McGuire, and hope the people who use the GTs marquee create memories throughout the season. A great facility has been achieved for the Green Taverners and their matchday experience at PAFC. Without Gary’s determination and endeavour, this project would never have happened, and he deserves considerable credit for making this possible for GT members.”
We would like to thank Jason and the entire Studiojb team for their professionalism, expertise and commitment in helping us bring the project to life.
